Take your mobile home from trashy to classy. Trailer Wrap, an architectural exercise by [University of Colorado](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/biophotovoltaic) students, could bring [affordable style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vettel-haus) to the often maligned trailer. The idea is to provide an economical kit for people to [makeover their own trailers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiny-birdy) and improve their home environment.

**Implications** - The idea for the Trailer Wrap was to create an item that would address the needs of comfort, efficiency and aesthetics. The featured image shows a home that is absolutely beautiful and I'd bet that you would have never guessed it was the inside of a trailer home! With this new makeover kit, trailers and their owners may be looked at more differently by such a judgmental society.
